More Beaded Ornaments (and Snowflakes)!
Nov. 1st, 2006 12:57 pmYes...the obsession is full blown now. I bought a bunch of beads while they were on sale a Joann's and I've been busy busy ever since!
I have changed up the netted design a little and learned how to make some different snowflakes too!
Sorry the pictures aren't too great. My camera's being goofy, and the beads are a bit difficult to photograph.

These are using the black iridescent beads I have. I'm quite in love with them.

Snowflakes!

More snowflakes (I think these might be my favorites so far. I used silver lined beads and more of the iridescent black ones):

ETA: Does anyone happen to know of a source for bulk seed beads? All I've found are expensive ones for jewelry. I'm really just looking for cheap-o glass ones. Thanks!
